Journey with Joy Vision & Mission
Vision:
To bring messages of joy, healing, and hope to the world through faith-based media, community impact, and digital outreach.”
Mission:
To inspire individuals, leaders, and families to choose joy through practical faith and transformational teaching.
We fulfill this mission through inspirational Bible teaching, intentional community-building, prayer initiatives, compassionate outreach, leadership development, and uplifting media content designed to ignite faith and joy.
The phrase “Journey With Joy” reflects a spiritual truth that is both timeless and timely: joy isn’t only a destination—it is a daily way of life. Scripture reminds in John 10:10, that Jesus desires for us to have an abundant life. Psalm 16:11 says, “In His presence is fullness of joy.”
Journey With Joy is dedicated to calling people today to find purpose, fuel faith, and choose joy. Just as the early church walked in unity, generosity, and joy, we are invited to rekindle that same spirit in our time.
At Journey With Joy, we are committed to helping people everywhere rediscover that joy is possible—not someday, but today—and that a life anchored in Christ brings hope, healing, and purpose for the world.
Beliefs
We believe that Jesus is the eternal, self-existent God and is not a created being. Even though He is fully God, He took upon Himself the form of a man to live and die for our sins. We believe that the penalty for the sins of the world was paid on the cross of Calvary in Jesus’ death. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23. By confessing, believing on Jesus Christ, and accepting the grace of His shed blood, we receive the gift of eternal life. Ephesians 2:8-9.
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and is profitable for, daily instruction correction, reproof, and instruction in righteousness as reflection and revelation of God’s character 2 Timothy 3:16.
We believe in the indwelling transforming power of the Holy Spirit as necessary for life today. John 14:15-16, 26-27; John 3:5-8, Acts 1:8.
We believe that life in Jesus will give you access to abundance and joy. Psalm 16:11, John 10:10, John 15:5.
Because we love Jesus for His sacrificial death, we want to obey Him as he commands in John 14:15. We are not saved by our works; but, because we are saved, we choose to keep His commandments as the guide for successful living. John 15:10, Matthew 22:37-40.
We believe that the prophetic word reveals Jesus is coming again very soon. 1 Thessalonians 5:1,2; 2 Peter 1:19; Revelation 22:12.
We believe that love and for the other regardless nation, kindred, language, class, or status is as important as love for God. This is a true sign of being connected to Christ as a disciple. John 13:34,35; 1 Peter 1:22.
